I’ve always wanted to go to China and I’ve always intended to study Chinese in China
INTO gave me my first opportunity to fulfil that goal Going to China was my first real
‘out of country’ experience because I’ve grown up in the US my entire life It was one
of the best experiences I’ve had!
Dan Janson
USA
Learning Chinese with friends from different countries helped me study another country’s culture It gave me a chance for cultural exchange If possible I would like to work in China in the future This programme made
me think about many things I have taken away many questions that I am asking myself How to live? How to study in the future? What kind of work I want to do? What kind of person do I want to be? There are many thoughts coming into my heart and I have found myself change a lot.
